Is there a way to interpret the environment variables on a Windows (2008 Server R2) platform? What I'm looking for is the usercode that executes the program. Some programs offer different functionality which is now derived from a table that is organised by username/usercode. Hans ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

For command-line arguments, there's package Ada.Command_Line (ARM A.15, http://www.adaic.org/resources/add_content/standards/05rm/html/RM-A-15.html); for environment variables, package Ada.Environment_Variables (ARM A.17, http://www.adaic.org/resources/add_content/standards/05rm/html/RM-A-17.html). Ada.Command_Line has existed since 1995; Ada.Environment_Variables came along in 2007. -- Jeff Carter "I like it when the support group complains that they have insufficient data on mean time to repair bugs in Ada software."

Indeed, but just as back in 1984, it is still named Ada, not ADA. -- Bill Findlay with blueyonder.co.uk; use surname & forename; ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
